2025 Presidential Inauguration Request

***UPDATE (1-17-2025) - The President-elect has decided to move the inauguration ceremony inside the U.S. Capitol due to potentially hazardous weather conditions in Washington, DC on January 20. As a result, ticketed guests will not be able to attend the ceremonies in person. Congressman Bishop’s office will continue to distribute tickets as allocated. However, all tickets will now be commemorative only and will not guarantee seated or standing attendance at the inauguration ceremony. Congressman Bishop’s office regrets that the inauguration events will not move forward as previously planned. If you decide to visit our nation's capital for the 60th Presidential Inauguration on January 20th, visit www.inauguration.dc.gov for information on road closures, transit, weather, and other updates on inaugural events in Washington, DC.
